hey this one is a little longer than the last hope you enjoy.


kate p.o.v.

I had a weird day today. Of course it is my first day back so what else would you expect. my day started up with my dad walking into my room and moving my curtains to let in the light. "Rise and shine sweetheart" he said

"yeah well you see the problem is I don't rise and shine…" I looked at my clock to check the time"before 6 in the morning" My dad let out a thunderous laugh. I didn't think my joke was that funny but apparently he did. then all of a sudden his eyes lost the joyful sparkle and aged about 30 years as he said "you remind me so much much of you mother sometimes"

"Dad…" but I didn't know what to say. I look just like her, the long wavy light brown almost blonde hair, the light blue eyes all came from her. Which explains why I look nothing like paul or my dad. No one talked about mom, not since she died in a car accident when I was about 6. I didn't know her very well nevertheless I still miss but no were near how much my dad does. So as a result no one says anything about her, it is just to painful for all of us.

After getting ready for school I came down stairs for breakfast. I was already running late so I had to be quick. As I turned the corner something large and dark jumped out at me and I scream so loud I am surprised the windows didn't shatter. Then I hear the booming laugh that was so similar to my father's and I look up to my older brother paul, saying "got ya"

"Is that a nice way to greet you little sister after so many months?" I question

"I can't believe you'll still fall for that…you should have seen the look on your face"

"haha it is nice to see you too Paul."

"aww come her" he wrapped me in a big bear hug sand I realized that he had grown and he was a lot more muscular. he was huge, he tower over me by a least a foot and I could barely breath because he was so strongly hugging me.

"Paul…can't breath"

"oh right sorry" he said

"paul you're giant did you have a growth spurt or something" paul blushed a little at my comment.

"uh…something like that" he responded " or maybe your just getting smaller"

"haha very funny paul."

At school I realized how much I missed my social life in La Push. My friends had no hard feelings about me moving away but were more interested in california than the fact that we haven't talked for a least a year. It was almost as if I had never left. And Jack my old boyfriend from La Push, we had along distance relationship when I moved to california and now that I was back he was conceived that it was just going to get better and I was starting to believe him.

That was until I saw seth. English was my last class of the day. Me and three other of my really good friends have the same class so we all heading in together. We walked in just as I finish telling them about the time I ran out of gas in the middle of the 101 freeway. They started laughing loudly and they reduced it to giggle as the teacher gave us a stare. I headed over to the teacher and introduced myself. She told me that I could take a seat text to Mr. clearwater. Oh great. I started to walk over to my seat and seth caught my eye for a second. All of a sudden I got this warm fuzzy feeling when he looked at me with his warm chocolate eyes I don't know why that happened but it is weird so I quickly look away.

Not before I noticed that he almost just as big as my brother. When did that happen and I can't help myself but take in the fact that he is hot like sexy hot. Stop thinking like that I told myself. He look anxious maybe even nervous when I sat down next to him. He was probably just worried that he would me forced to talk to me.

"uh….hi kate" wait what is he talking to me. well obviously he is he just said my name. After years of not talking to him I didn't really know how to respond.

"Seth" I said venomously.

"so" he continued"did you enjoy california"

"uh..yeah" I replied shortly, still confused why he was talking to me.

"what kind of school did you go to?"

"a high school" why did he want to know. He had been so mean to me for so long I didn't feel like be kind or nice at all.

"what was it like?"

finally I voiced the question that had been in my head for so long. "why are you talking to me?"

"why not"

"Cause you haven't for the past three years" I blurted out and I felt as though I just reopened an old wound the pain came back as if it was just yesterday that the ella thing had happen.

"look i am really sorry…" haha that was funny now he apologizes.

"I don't want your apologizes there a little to late" I said. I got up as the bell rang and left. As I was walking away I felt an invisible string try to tug me back to seth. No, I told my heart who seemed to already be walking back to seth as is he owned it. I would just end up get hurt by him again and that is not something I want to do twice. So I listened to my mind instead of my heart.

Later as I was walking back to the main parking lot getting ready to leave school. I hear some girl talking to seth, I couldn't help myself I stopped and stared at them, just in time to she the girl attack him with a kiss. Well at least I know now that seth hasn't changed since last time I saw him. He saw me looking and I got really embarrassed but didn't show it instead I gave him a hard look and rolled my eyes. I tried to ignore the fact that I felt hurt and depressed that the girl that kissed seth wasn't me.
